FINDING THE SECRET OF HAPPINESS

FINDING THE SECRET OF HAPPINESS


EVERYONE wants to be HAPPY=right?
Everyone wants to find GOD'S BLESSINGS


The FIRST of the 150 PSALMS
ENCOURAGES US to read further


“BLESSED is the man
Who FOLLOWS
Not the counsel
Of the wicked


Nor WALKS
In the way of sinners” Psalm 1:1


Too MANY of us
Think we will be BLESSED
And HAPPY


If we ACCUMULATE
A great deal of money


OTHERS of us TRY to
FIND happiness in awards
And popularity


BUT this our FIRST PSALM
In 150=explains a REAL
HAPPY=and BLESSED PERSON


Finds TRUE peace and FULFILLMENT
By being JUST=by being KIND=
And be being HONEST


LIVING GENUINELY and with virtues
BRINGS much happiness=
WHERE do you LOOK
For happiness in your life?


“But may the RIGHTEOUS
Be glad
And REJOICE before God


May they be HAPPY
And JOYFUL” Psalm 68:3


“A HAPPY HEART
Makes the FACE cheerful


But heartache
Crushes the spirit” Proverbs 15:13


“........
Yet now I am HAPPY
Not because
You were made sorry


But because your sorry
LED you to repentance


For you BECAME sorrowful
As God intended
And so were NOT HARMED
In any way by us” 2 Corinthians 7:9


LIVING by the pursuit of money
OR by the pursuit of GLAMOUR
Leads us ONLY to an
EMPTY and painful end


But the first psalm TEACHES US
That a CONTENT HEART makes us
The richest and HAPPIEST PEOPLE
In the world


BE happy and content=
Let us be JUST-KIND-
And HONEST


“But I have CALMED
And quieted myself
I am like a weaned child
With its mother


Like a weaned child
I AM CONTENT” Psalm 131:2


“I am NOT saying this
Because I am in need


For I have
LEARNED to be CONTENT=
WHATEVER the circumstances” Philippians 4:11


BE HAPPY=BE CONTENT=find out
The SECRET of HAPPINESS


LIVE by the LAWS of the LORD=
Of LOVE AND FORGIVENESS


In the names of Jesus=and GOD HIS LOVING FATHER
